Lo esencial

Good skiing can still be found in sheltered areas.  Be alert as cornices are getting larger with all these winds.

Problemas de aludes

  • Wind Slabs

    • Alta montaña
    • Límite del bosque
    • Bajo el límite del bosque
    Probabilidad
    Unlikely - Possible
    Tamaño
    1–2.5
    Facetting is helping ease this problem at treeline. The alpine on the other hand is still covered in windslabs of varying densities.

  • Deep Persistent Slabs

    • Alta montaña
    • Límite del bosque
    • Bajo el límite del bosque
    Probabilidad
    Unlikely - Possible
    Tamaño
    2–3.5
    Large triggers are a concern. It's safe to say we're in the "low probability/high consequence" situation. Avoid thin areas.
